Fish oil and fish liver oil, which often makes people confused. But these two are completely different health foods. Do you want to supplement vitamin D and eat fish liver oil? Should we eat fish oil to prevent blood vascular porridge from hardening?

What is the difference between fish oil and fish liver oil?

Fish oil is an oil produced by deep-sea fish fat layer. It is rich in Omega-3 polyuninfection and fatty acids. Among these non-season fatty acids, DHA and EPA are the most well-known. DHA has the functions of protecting the neuronal cells of the Internet and promoting brain neuron development. EPA can reduce blood lipids and reduce thrombosis.

Fish liver oil is an extract of fish liver. Biomin A and D. Vitamin A has the effect of preventing dry eye and night blindness. Vitamin D is helpful for the absorption of calcification and the development of bones and teeth. Vitamin D supplementation has the effect of preventing bone relaxation and preventing rium. It should be noted that vitamins A and D are both fat-soluble vitamins. Unlike water-soluble vitamins that can be excreted from urine, excessive fat-soluble vitamins will most likely be absorbed in the liver in the end, causing a certain degree of impact and damage to the liver. Therefore, the amount of fish liver oil should not be too much.

So how much is the amount?

The amount of fish oil is based on Omega-3 polybasic and fatty acid total, according to the National Institutes of Health, NIH recommends that the daily total daily amount of Omega-3 polydiversity and fatty acids for adults is 1.6 grams for adults and 1.1 grams for adults, of which the total amount of DHA and EPA should not exceed 650 mg per day; the daily amount of vitamin A for adults is 900 micrograms (Taiwan recommends 600 micrograms, with a maximum limit of 3,000 micrograms), and the daily amount of adults is 700 micrograms (Taiwan recommends 500 micrograms, with a maximum limit of 3,000 micrograms); the daily amount of vitamin D for adults is 15 micrograms for adults (Taiwan recommends 5 micrograms, with a maximum limit of 50 micrograms).

Although these health foods have the effect of maintaining physical health and preventing diseases, they must be within a reasonable range, just like most drugs. Health foods are not necessarily good if you eat too much. Only by taking them under the specified dosage can it promote health. Eating more will not only make you lose your health, but may even cause harm to the body. You must be careful.
